• Delete unless sources demonstrating notability are found. SolidPlaid 05:58, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Weak Keep (see below - 2007.10.18) -- contains almost no information -- Imperator3733 06:27, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep for now. The article has improved immensely since I recommended delete. I think it should be kept for no as long as it continues to improve. -- Imperator3733 15:00, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Schools-related deletions. —Chris 08:31, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
• Comment - I have found a few sources on the school here, [1], but in the articles present state it is not really worth keeping. Camaron1 | Chris 09:52, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - Article has been heavily improved, and I suggest we keep it for now. Search reveals quite a few sources on the school, seems to have potential to become a good article and pass WP:N. Camaron1 | Chris 10:27, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
    • Thanks for your improvements as well as updating your comment. I simply used the website for the information. It can be a great article yet! Thanks again. Carter | Talk to me 10:30, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
    • I am continuing to improve the article to allow it to pass WP:N, any help would be appreciated. Camaron1 | Chris 18:57, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
• Strong keep As you'll notice, I've added content as well as reference and an info box that can easily be expanded. If you take a look at the website, you'll see a lot of potential content that I haven't had time to add yet. Let's give it a chance. Carter | Talk to me 10:04, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
• Weak keep per Chris. Elmao 11:32, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
• Weak Keep: For now. We'll see if there are improvements. - Rjd0060 15:17, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of New Zealand-related deletions. —gadfium 18:42, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete: If this is the heavily-improved version, I shudder to think of the original. It seems wholly ordinary and not worthy of any note. CRGreathouse (t | c) 19:37, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Take a look at the version from from 00:57, 2007 October 14. That's what it was when I recommended Delete -- Imperator3733 23:20, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
  • The current version has been put together quite quickly, but is definitely an improvement. Note that the article has only existed for less than 48 hours. Camaron1 | Chris 17:25, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete This improved version is merely a yellow page entry--Victor falk 22:11, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete There just is not yet any encyclopedic information for this primary school--let along sources. DGG (talk) 06:37, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

  Agree, if the school can demonstrate notable people having gone there fine, but as of now, it's nn. Phgao 07:41, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

• Weak keep, certainly a marginal case in terms of notability, but quite a decent article. Having a footnoted alumnus just tips it over the balance for me.-gadfium 03:20, 16 October 2007 (UTC). Now full keep per dramatic, below.-gadfium 18:49, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Non-notable school. Keb25 22:40, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
• Keep - the article has been improved to meet objections and now, with multiple sources, meets WP:N. TerriersFan 16:14, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
• Keep - It's one of only a couple of schools in New Zealand based on the English Preparatory school model, which makes it distinctive. Many alumni go on to Christ's College, Canterbury. dramatic 15:08, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
• Keep LordHarris 19:27, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Insufficient notability asserted. Eusebeus 17:09, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
